More on Worth and Value are Different than Price

I was reminded of this topic recently when reading the story of the little known Varian Fry who ran a small agency which rescued over one thousand individuals from the Nazis at the beginning of WW II. With only $3000 strapped to his leg, a list of names, and a noble cause he and his small staff made a permanent difference in the lives of so many.

In contrast, I read how the U.S. government wasted 20 billion U.S. with a noble cause and total stupidity. See http://www.amconmag.com/2005/2005_10_24/cover.html, Money for Nothing.

It's true, worth and value are different than price. The crucial factor seems to be good common sense versus blind knee-jerk ideology. Let the buyer beware.
